This is the AMD equivalent. 5600x CPU will handle all of your gaming needs.
Beefed up the RAM to 3600.
For your monitor the 3060ti will be all you need, the 6800 is massively overkill.
Refurbished your storage with a blisteringly fast 980 OS drive, and a 1TB m.2 for your games, and the HDD for general storage of music, photos etc where the extra speed doesn’t matter.
With the 5600x and for purely gaming the stock cooler is absolutely fine with the Arctic paste.
Google Chrome steals a lot of RAM, people on here will not recommend it as your browser of choice.
Added silver warranty for £5, definitely worth it.
